Over the past 6 months we’ve been very busy with major infrastructural works at our new Green Resource Centre (GRC) in Floriana which are now almost completed, thanks to the generous support of our members and also the Ministry for the Environment, Sustainable Development and Climate Change (MESDC)’s Environmental Fund.
The Green Resource Centre will also host our head office from which all activities and operations are co-ordinated. In addition to office space and equipment, the centre will incorporate a multifunctional hall with audio visual facilities and an urban garden which will enable us to organise more workshops and activities – including our now established BeeAware Course, urban gardening and vegan cooking classes.
How can you help ?
We are still looking for your generous support in order to help us develop the first voluntary run service in Malta specifically aimed to assist members of the public with legal and generic aid on environmental related matters.
Fixing the old British period building which had been abandoned for many years came a great cost , and would appreciate all and any help that our members can give us.

Through the GRC, members of the public will be provided with expertise through a dedicated schedule of service as well as access to a resource library with relevant publications, handbooks and other educational materials. This initiative is only one of a number of components FoE Malta has established as part of an extensive 3 year plan that will see all these initiatives combine into a solid and innovative hub of volunteering activities.
